Yun Xiao sat at the stone table, took the chopsticks handed by Xiao Xue, and glanced at her thoughtfully, "Xiao Xue, I heard that your family lives in the capital, who are the people in the family?" ”

I had planned to go out of the house privately to familiarize myself with the capital, so it was better to go out for a walk in the past few days while repairing the courtyard, but I must have a guide when I left the house, so as not to waste time by colliding everywhere.

"Miss, the slave was born and raised in the capital." When it comes to family affairs, Xiaoxue's eyes dimmed, and a sad memory appeared in front of her, "The slave maid's father and mother died when she was eight years old, and the slave maid and the little brother depended on each other, and they didn't have the next meal." Fortunately, I met Xiao Guard, and let the slave and maid come to the palace to do things, so that the slave and the little brother had food and clothing. ”

Xiaoxue's narration made Yun Xiao's heart sour, she didn't expect Xiaoxue's life experience to be so miserable, not only her fugitive life in this world is lonely and sad.

Yun Xiao took out a pair of earrings and a silk brocade bag from her belongings, "Three prayers, you can wear these earrings, Xiaoxue, you can take these silver to support your family, your little brother lives alone, don't let him live too hard." ”

Sanqi took the earrings and thanked them. Each piece of jewelry that the prince bought for the young lady is very valuable, and the three prayers are like a treasure. It's not the first time that Miss has given her jewelry, and it's rare that Miss is not a miser of luxury, so generous.

Xiaoxue has never touched such a large sum of silver, and the bag contains more than two hundred taels, "Miss, how dare the slave and maid accept so much silver?" ”

"Take it, what I eat is rewarded by the prince, and the silver is also the prince's, I borrow flowers to offer the Buddha."

"Miss tells you to take it, just take it." Sanqi opened his mouth to interject, and the identity of Miss Sanqi is only known by Sanqi, and this bit of silver is like pulling out a small cow's hair for Miss Yun, don't be in vain.

"Thank you, Miss, for the reward." Xiaoxue took the silver and was grateful.

The sound of repairing houses in the courtyard is too disturbing, disturbing people, Yun Xiao doesn't want to go back to the West Palace, but there is nowhere to hide, remembering that there is no hostess living in Yijing Garden, you can go there to be quiet and quiet.

The palace built for the princess towered in front of her, Yun Xiao didn't want to look at it anymore, ran directly to the shore of the lake, walked through the water promenade, strolled onto the island in the middle of the lake, and happened to meet Concubine Zheng was also on the island.

"I've seen Zheng Niangniang." Yun Xiao was slightly blessed and said with a smile: "Zheng Niangniang also likes Xiaoneihu?" ”

"Concubine Ben likes the quietness here, it's always too stuffy in the garden, and she comes out to breathe." Concubine Zheng was in a lonely mood and said lightly. Since leaving Zixuan Yuan that day, he has not seen the prince again.

"Yes, the mist on the island in the middle of the lake is refreshing and calming." Yun Xiao sighed, only this place in the palace is quieter, if the princess marries into the palace, this place will not be quiet.

"There are very few people here to bother." Because it's a place where right and wrong are far away. Concubine Zheng has always disliked to go to places where there are many women, so she is often alone.

"The mother's tranquility is still disturbed by me."

"Xiaomei is not a disturbing person, so you don't have to care."

"Would you like to sit in the Pearl Pavilion with your little sister?" Yun Xiao pointed to the Pearl Pavilion.

"Okay, I'll sit down a little longer." It was not early, Concubine Zheng wanted to leave, but seeing that she was quite interested, she dispelled the idea of leaving.

The two came to the Pearl Pavilion together and sat down, and Yahuan served the teacup. Concubine Zheng has an elegant temperament and a good conversation, Yun Xiao can talk to her very well, the two of them drank tea and chatted, but they didn't realize that it was dark.

"Niangniang, why don't you pass over dinner and let's talk for a while?" Yun Xiao didn't want to go back to bear the noise of those repairing houses, so she simply proposed to spread food on this island in the middle of the lake.

Concubine Zheng had heard that this little sister had moved to the West Mansion and was repairing the garden, and she couldn't help but secretly admire her wisdom. She didn't want to go back early because she was repairing the garden, and she was alone when she returned to the garden, so she followed her wishes and stayed with her.

The two had dinner together and came to the pavilion to enjoy the night view of the lake.

Ye Zi came to the island in the middle of the lake quickly, and originally wanted to ask to leave this stupid young lady, but was reprimanded by the manager, and she had to come back reluctantly.

"Miss, the manager asked the slave maid to pass the word, let the young lady go to the West Palace, the prince has something to say to the young lady." Ye Ziyu said.

"Got it." Yun Xiao frowned, snorted lightly, and still sat still. It's not nice to see Ye Zi, but the prince is the person she doesn't want to face.

"There must be something wrong with the prince summoning the little sister back to the West Palace, let's disperse, the concubine will go back to the garden first." Concubine Zheng got up and said goodbye with interest, and there was a faint trace of sourness in her heart because of the prince's coldness, but she couldn't change anything.

"The little sister will have tea with her mother another day." Yun Xiao politely sent her away.

"If you're interested, let's go to the Hibiscus Garden." Concubine Zheng rarely invited a woman to Furong Garden as a guest, looking at the many women in the palace, few people could talk to her.

"Well, by all means." Yun Xiao was invited, maybe she would go to the Hibiscus Garden tomorrow to have a look.

Sanqi gave a farewell gift to Concubine Zheng, pulled Ye Zi aside and complained in a low voice: "Ye Zi, you are really not good, I haven't seen you all afternoon, where have you gone?" ”

"Momoko is sick, I'll take care of her." Ye Zi Dao. In the afternoon, she did go to the Jade Pavilion and complained to Peach.

"Then you should send a letter back, too." Sanqi knew that Ye Zi and Peaches were the best, and she naturally had to take care of Peaches when she was sick, but she didn't even say hello, and there was no young lady in her eyes.

"I'm busy and forgot." Ye Zi found a reason to prevaricate in the past, she was a person who couldn't hold back her words in her heart, there was a strange thing that still made her excited and unhappy, and she said a secret that she had eavesdropped on her ears in the third period, "Sister Sanqi, Wei Niangniang invited the prince to go to the Jade Pavilion, and asked the peach to add aphrodisiac incense to the incense burner." ”

"How can you know about such a thing?" Sanqi pursed his lips, not quite convinced.

"It's true, I hid in the room and heard Wei Niangniang tell Taozi to go to He Jiu to ask for that kind of incense."

Although Ye Zi lowered his voice, he didn't expect that the sound of the wind would spread far away, and it would reach the ears of the two masters not far away.

Yun Xiao was shocked, the prince must have inhaled the aphrodisiac incense, and should stay in the Jade Pavilion to celebrate with Concubine Wei, how could she go to the West Hall to meet, if she approached the prince tonight, wouldn't it be difficult to deal with the aphrodisiac incense?
